BEAUFORT: Fifteen kilometres apart, two national leaders were giving two different narratives on the country’s financial situation as the campaign for Kimanis heats up with five days to go before the by-election.

Both leaders – Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin and Datuk Seri Najib Razak – were pitching for their respective candidates while extolling each other’s strengths and shortcomings amid a barrage of attacks on each other’s past and present misdeeds.
